CLEAN-UP DEMANDED FOR STREET SAFETY Practice of Taking Left Lane to Gain on Other Cars Condemned as Peril. By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Constituting roughly 2 per cent of the motor vehicles registered in the Capital, taxicabs account for a far greater proportion of the depredatious that endanger and terrorize Washing- ton traffic. The bullying, intimidating snarling practices of a large number of taxi drivers, their assumption of pre- dominance among street users and their seeming ability to “get away with it,” stamp them as despots whose vicious reign must end before Washington streets are safe. This conviction, held by thousands of Washington motorists, is fully sustain- ed in any quest for the facts relating to the question, “What is wrong with Washington traffic?” Amassing close to 10,000 miles—often mad, menacing miles—every 24 hours on the streets of the Capital, taxi drivers— not all of them, but an astonishingly large proportion—are a dangerous, dis- turbing factor constantly to be seen. The group, obviously, is not without its careful, law-abiding and consid- erate members, but the depredations of the others are so patent and per- petual that the reputation of all tainted. Often Take to Left Lane. Chief among the charges laid at the door of the taxi driver is that he races through the streets oblivious of the | rights of others, blind alike to the dangers of reckless speed and limitation the law imposes upon it. A left-lane driver of the worst type is an appraisa! of the taxi driver that is general among other classes of motor vehicle operators The passion to get at the head of the traffic line—apparent in the cases of hundreds of hackers and accounting for their left-lane driving — their efforts to “shoot” every narrow hole in the traffic stream, and many other practices that are dangerous, no matter how deft the driver, are responsible for the antagonism that others feel for the taxi chauffeur. It is responsible, too, for the situation created by the conflict be- tween the arrogant private vehicle operator and the taxi driver, one that rages constantly by virtue of the des- potic attitude of both classes of permit holders. Police Laxity Is Factor. The apparent ability of the hacker to race his reckless way through traf- fic without police restraint is a con- stant source of wonderment on the part of a host of observers of traffic con- ditions here. Giving greater force to this attitude is the manner in which the taxi driver “gets by’’ with other obvious. violations, as some charge, ‘under the very eyes of policemen.” As a “signal-jumper,” the hacker is universally accepted as knowing no equal, whether the signal in question be operated automatically or by a po- liceman.

Special to The Washington Post. Chicago, Aug. 13.—Jennie Meta Con- stance’s murderer was trapped tonight through the watch he had torn from the teacher’s wrist after he had beaten her to death last Tuesday night and dragged her behind a hedge at the home of Attorney George H. Peaks, in Evanston. When captured he immediately confessed. The prisoner is a negro and he gave the name of Dave Shanks, He had worked around Evanston as a shoe shiner and at various other occupations. He sold the watch to a boy, the son of the owner of the shoe shining stand, for $1, and it was the boy who led the police to Shanks. The confession cleared that has had Evanston state of alarm for nearly a week. Immediately after the finding of the body of Miss Constance, who was 42 and a summer student at Northwestern University, President Walter Dill Scott of the University offered a reward of $1,000 for the capture of the murderer who was adjudged to be either a maniac or a moron. Miss Constance was the head of the up a crime in a English department of the Bradley Polytechnic Institute at Peoria, and had degrees of A. B. and M. A., but was seeking a degree of doctor of philosophy. She was noted as a lec- turer and had done considerable traveling. The watch had been the only clew, and Chief ofsPolice William O. Free- man had pinned his final hopes to the turning up of the watch. He was at the end of his possibilities today when John Mertz, a wholesale jeweler called on him. “Is this the watch that was taken from Miss Constance?” Mertz &sked. It was. “It had been taken to the jewelry store of Earl H. Koch to be reinitialed,”’ Mertz stated. Wait for Claimant of Watch. The watch bore the initials J. M.

ANGLU-NATIONALIST OETTLEMENT MADE Chinese Take Responsibility for Nanking Incident; but Blame Communists.

The Nationalist gov- ernment blamed the trouble on Com- munists, Under the settlement the Nanking government apologizes for the Nan- king affair and undertakes to punish those guilty of it.

Columbus, Ohio, Aug 13.- Voters tn rg@vord breaking numbers for an Ohlo primary election are expected to pour forth tomorrow to nominate State, dis- trict and county candidates as well as to select a complete slate of party com- mittees. Because of long and complt- cated ballots in both political parties the count is expected to be slow and tedious. Advance registrations have broken all records, due to local party contests be- tween reformers and political machines in Cleveland and Cincinnati! and to un- usual interest throughout the State in the general Ohio contest. Advance estt- mafes are of a vote of 500,000 Repubil- cans and perhaps 300,000 Democrats Republicans have had the real acri- mony in the contests. While fortunes of both Herbert Hoover and Gov. Alfred E. Smith are involved, they have been mentioned but little in the contests. Nominally, no bolter in either party seeks preference The storm center is in the Repub- lican nomination for governor with three leading candidates and three small time aspirants.

Spaulding, of the Twelfth Precinct. District Attorney Leo A. Rover yes- terday turned the Smith shooting over to his assistant, Walter M. Shea, for investigation. Shea at once started a study of evidence thus far gathered by police and the evidence submitted at the coroner’s inquest. After this preliminary study, Shea asserted that “startling disclosures” will be made in the case. He intends to visit the scene of the shooting today. F. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of colored Elks, has directed Robert J. Nelson, executive director of the bu- reau of civil liberties of the organiza- tion, to make a survey of the shooting of Smith. This survey, it was stated, will also include several cases pend- ing before the police trial board. Smith was shot Thursday night on the grounds of the National Training School for Boys on Bladensburg road northeast by Policeman Spaulding. The policeman said he had attempted to stop the negro several times for speed- ing, but was almost forced from the road, he said, when the negro swerved his car. Smith then leaped from the car and ran into the school grounds, Spaulding said. Pistol Found Near Body. As he followed, he saw the colored man reach for his back pocket, and he fired, fearing the man would shoot him, the policeman said. A search at that time failed to reveal any weapon, ex- cepting a penknife on the ground by the car. Later a policeman reported he found a pistol within a few feet of the place where Smith fell, almost in- stantly killed.

TRAIN oTRIKE ON 80 AUAD: UP FOR VOTE Brotherhoods Meet Today Throughout the West to Decide Course. EFFORT TO ARBITRATE WAGE DEMANDS FAILS Lines’ Offer of Pay Increase if Rules Are Abandoned Is Rejected by Men. Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 13 (A.P.) Members of the Brotherhood of Ralile road Trainmen and the Order of Ralle way Conductors in the Western States will hold sectional meetings tomorrow to vote upon a strike following the failure of attempts to arbitrate wage demands, A. F. Whitney, president of the trainmen, announced here tonight. The men will vote on the original demands of the labor organizations for increases ranging from 10 per cent for yardmen to 18 per cent for trainmen and conductors, Whitney said. During recent arbitration proceed- ings in Chicago between the unions, a committee representing the railroads and John Williams, of the Federal Board of Mediation, an offer of a 7% per cent increase was made by the roads. Decline to Drop Rules. This was acceptable to the trainmen and conductors but the railroads made the offer only on condition that the two labor groups agree to abolish cere tain working rules, Whitney declared. The unions declined this offer because the working rules were considered more valuable than the increase proposed, he added. Negotiations then were dropped and the brotherhoods prepared strike Dal- lots, the last of which were mailed out from Chicago today. Approximately 70,000 railroad em- ployes and roads owning about 98 per cent of track mfleage west of Chicago are affected by the threatened strike. Ninety general chairmen of the brotherhoods will meet with their come mittees throughout the West tomorrow to vote on the strike proposal. The ballots will be returned to Chicago not later than September 2, when the dee cision of the unions will be announced. Other Roads Met Demands. The Western railroads are the only ones which have not satisfactorily met the wage demands of the trainmen and conductors. The original proposal for increases, ranging from 10 to 18 per cent, were sent out months ago. The demands were arbitrated in the East and South. Conferences with the Western raile- road representatives were started July 16 in Chicago. The Brotherhood exe ecutives were in conference with repe resentatives of the Government Medlia- tion Board there from July 22 to Aue gust 8. These proceedings resulted in the final refusal of the two organizae tions to accept the 7144 per cent ine crease conditionally, Whitney, in a statement issued toe night, declared: “The offer made by the railroads, if accepted, would have discriminated against our Western conductors and trainmen, as it would have established rates of pay lower than those in effect on the Eastern and Southern roads, Standard Basic Pay Rates. “Standard basic rates for conductors, trainmen and yardmen were established by Government order during Federal control, and the Federal Board of Arbie tration recognized this principle in a decision effective March 1, 1927, in- creasing the rates of pay for the yarde men in Western territory to the rates paid similar employes throughout the East and South. It is fundamentally right that standerd rates fcr these classes should mrevail, and since the é...ployes of the Western railroads earn $6,300 more per man in annual income for the roads than the Eastern eme ployes, these figures prove that the men working on the Western roads are the more valuable producers, “The Western railroads also declined to concede 34 cents a day to trainmen and conductors handling United States mail, notwithstanding the fact that the Eastern and Southern men and the Index to Today’s Issue Pages, 1—Taxicab Men Held to Be Despots, Slayer of Educator Caught.

Instead of stepping up power-ability and speed- ability by increasing the motor’s size (and thereby increasing gasoline consumption)— Nash developed entirely new principles of high compression motor design, and gained more power, more speed—with LESS gasoline consumption. In doing this, Nash also achieved a motor that is not dependent on special high-priced fuels for successful operation.

HOOVER SEES HARD “BATTLE FOR V0Tta Leaders Give Him Information Different From That They Hand to Press. CONFIDENT. AS TO RESULT Stanford University, Calif., Aug. 13 (A:P.).—While Herbert Hoover is grati- fiéd by both the reception of his ac- ceptance speech and the reports on the political outlook brought to him here, he appreciates that he has a battle ahead for the Presidency. Friends of the Republican nominee disclosed today that the information as to the situation over the country given him by party leaders has been somewhat different from that which some of these leaders have given to the public through the newspapers, generally they have advised Hoover that there is a real contest, but that they @re confident as to the result. Having received detailed reports from Dr. Hubert Work, chairman of the Re- publican national committee, and other leaders who came here for the notifica- tion ceremonies Saturday, Hoover did not regard it as essential that he at- tend the national committee meeting today at San Francisco. He went. to that city, however, to be present at a session of the board of trustees of Stan- ford University, of which he is a member. Governors to Be Guests, Several Republican chieftains ac- companied him back to his home here and he spent a couple of hours with them and then turned again to work on his West Branch, Iowa, speech which he hoped to complete before leaving here Thursday night for his birthplace by way of Los Angeles, Alburquerque and Kansas City. During the return trip to Washing- ton, Mr. Hoover will have with him on his train at different times the gover- nors of States through which he will pass. Arizona, which he will strike first after leaving his home State, will be an exception, as the administration there is Democratic. He will go through New Mexico on Sunday and consequently will make no rear end platform talks in that State. In Kansas, the home of his running ' mate, Charles Curtis, he will make brief stops at Hutchinson, Emporia and To- peka, but will not see Curtis, as the senator has an engagement away from his home town at that time. He wiil be joined, however, by Senator Capper, of the Sunflower State. Telegrams commending his accep- tarice speech continued to stream into his home today along with newspaper editorial comments. A recurring note in the expressions indicated that many newspaper editors and individuals had construed his treatment of the pro- hibition question as an unequivocal bone dry pronouncement. Telegrams Are Received. One of the congratulatory tele- grams came from Mrs. R. R. Bittman, of Independence, Kans., Republican national committeewoman from that State, who declared that his reference to prohibition and farm relief was pleasing. Along with it came congratulations from Senator Charles S. Deneen, of Tilinois, and a declaration from Carmi Thompson, of Cleveland, manager of the campaign of the late Senator Wil- lis, that “you have satisfied the Re- Publicans and people of Ohio gen- erally.” Thompson predicted an “over- whelming victory in November.” Another, from George K. Morris, Re- publican State chairman for New York, declared that, “in my judgment, your speech means that New York State will sure cast its 45 votes for the Hoover- Curtis ticket.” Other New Yorkers who joined in conveying their congratulations were Augustus L.. Richards, of Albany, and and Felix M. Warburg, a New York banker, who predicted Hoover’s elec- tion, saying that the address “estab- lishes your campaign upon the lofty , plane of moral idealism.’ / John Hays Hammond, from Glouces- ter, Mass., sent his “hearty congratula- tion on your masterly and inspiring message to the American people.” ‘ West’s Republican Plans.

Lowden, former Governor of Illinois, announced here tonight that he is impressed by Mr. Hoover's “recogni- tion that the agricultural problem !s the most urgent economic problem tin our Nation today.” He believes, however, that “it will be found practically that his (Mr. Hoover's) stabilization corporation (for aiding the farmer) can only attain the objects which he hopes to accomplish if the cost to the corporation of sta- bilizing the price of any commodity be distributed over the commodity in- volved and not taken from the public treasury.” The statement issued at his summer home, Castle Rest, here, by Mr. Lowden, who was a candidate for the nomina- tion himself at the Republican con- vention, follows: “I am much impressed by Mr. Hoover's acceptance speech as a whole, With reference to agriculture, his frank recognition that the agricultural prob- lem is the most urgent economic prob- lem in our Nation today is very heart- ening. 1 have stated, I think, a thou- sand times, that a general acknowledg- ment that the problem exists would be half the battle If there had been such recognition years ago, the agricultural situation would be vastly different today. “Mr. Hoover's aspiartions the farm population up to equality with other groups to bring economic have my PRANK O.

I! it will be found practically that his proposed stabilization corporation can only attain the objects which he hopes to accomplish if the cost to the cor- poration of stabilizing the price of any commodity be distributed over the commodity involved and not from the public treasury.” think, however at a conference presided over by Dr. Hubert C. Work, national chairman, a which plans for nearly three months of active campaigning were made. In an outline of future maneuvers, particular attention was paid to offensive plans in two saiient sectors, the South and the nationwide stronghold of feminine votes. In the first region, said Senator George H. Moses, of New Hampshire, “the sight may be expected of vessels long considered Democratic slipping their cables and floating into the safe harbor of Republicanism.” “In the second,” he said, “Herbert Hoover will prove the man for whom housewives will desert their stoves on November 6 Surprising rifts in the “solld South” were forecast by committeemen from Texas, Arkansas and North Carolina. “Anti-Al Smith societies among Demo- crats in those States-are more properly pro-Hoover,” said Carl P. Collins, of Texas. George L, Mallory and Commit- teewoman W. E, Kennon expressed sim- llar opinions in the name of Hoover ad- herents in Arkansas and North Caro- lina. Charles L. Neumiller, chairman of the Republican State committee in Cali- fornia, predicted his State will “go in November as she did in the primary.” Gov. George L, Fisher, of Pennsyl- vania, told the conference that “there is no aoubt of the success of Herbert Hoover in the East.” Coolidge Not Expected To Congratulate Hoover Superior, Wis., Aug 1s (A.P.).—The belief that President Coolidge would not add his message to the thousands which have poured upon Secretary Hoover in connetcion with his speech of acceptance last Saturday was ex- pressed at the summer White House today. Coolidge, it was said has given no indication that he imténds to send any communication to the Republican presidential nominee, It was also rev2sled after two days of great reserve that Coolidge did not listen over the radio to Hoover’s ac- ceptance speech. The Chief Executive was fishing Saturday while the ad- dress was being delivered. White House Officials had been very reticent regard- ing this point, saying they had no in- formation to give ou. Coolidge discussed with Maj. Gen. Edgar Jadwin, chief of Army Engineers, the report of the Mississippt Flood Con- trol Board, of which Gen. Jadwin is a member, regarding the practica] execu- | tion of the Mississippi flood \control plan. adopted at Congress. Gen. Jadwin arrived last night on an inspection .vour and was invited by Coolidge to be a White House guest. Upon his return from the lodge to- day, Gen. Jadwin, a though admitting he had discussed the report with the Chief Executive, refused t> disclose the purport of that document. Gen. Jadwin intimated, however, that the report had sicceeded in recon- ciling differences 'n the twu Mississippi flood projects and tha* President Cool- idge would have no difficulty in mak- ing future recommendations for flood relief execution. uke last session of There is satisfaction and ample re- sults with Post Classified Ads.

Love, former Democratic national “bolters” be barred from the run-off primary In the first primary ler polled the most Lieut. Gov, Mil- votes, but failed of a majority. Love, whose name was left off the ballot in several counties because of his stand against the party presidential nominee, ran second. Now, with only two candidates in the race, one a Smith .man and the other anti-Smith, the run-off primary will afford the Democratic voters of the State an opportunity to render a clear-cut decision. Each member of the State committee was questioned as’ to whether he intended to vote for Gov. Smith in November and only one dis- senter was found, the Rev. J. C. Ever- ett, of South San Antonio. The minister, who held a said that “although I love the cratic party, 1 will vote for Hoover for President.” A motion was adopted requiring the State committee to query every presi- dential elector in order that the State convention might be certain that none would bolt Gov. Smith in the Novem- ber election or in the electoral college. Before taking up the question of Love’s place in the certified list, the committee removed one of its own members because he announced he would vote for Herbert Hoover, the Re- publican presidential nominee. He was the Rey. J. C. Everett, of Sdn Antonio. The committee promptly canceled the proxy and then questioned every other membcr to make certain that no bolt- ers sat on the committee. The commit- tee also voted to query every elector on the slate to make certain that the elec- toral offices would not fall into the hands of any bolters.

POLITICS NOT DISCUSSED Albany, N. Y., Aug. 13 (A.P.).—With his acceptance speech still incomplete, Gov. Smith gave an attentive ear today to the group of Middle Western and Southern fcrm ‘eaders, of whom at least some have expressed dissatisfac- tion over the Republican party’s stand on agriculture. After the conference, which took up the better part of .ive hours, the Democratic nominee and his ten call- ers, who came to Albany at his in- vitation, said the conversation had dealt solely with farm legislation and that politics had not been discussed. Reiterating an intention to touch the farm problem fully at his notification ceremony a week from Wednesday night, Smith said he had assured his visitors that in his opin- ion “the essentials of the relief they are seeking through legislation§ are covered in the Democratic platform on which I stand.” “There remains but to determine,” he added in a statement, “the details to make these essentials effective.” In another statement the nine men and one woman who took part in the round table discussion joined in de- claring they were “pleased with the erest in and understand- ng of the agricultural problem.” They made no reference in this statement to their intentions during | the campaign.

Smith, of Llinols; Murphy, Seattle; Davis and Caverno were identified by those who arranged for the meeting as Republicans, and it wes recalled that Smith and Murphy, as members of the platform committee at the Kansas City convention, led the losing fight to have the Republicans adopt a farm plank along McNary-Haugen lines. Davis, although he had been desig- nated as spokesman for the group, had little to say on behalf of his colleagues. He did say, however, that in his own opinion the Democratic platform “rec- ognizes the problem and the remedies in about the way the farm group sees it,”’ and expressed the personal view that Herbert Hoover's “proposed national stops,”’ as set forth in his acceptance speech, “were vholly inadequate” to meet the farm problems he outlined. Carter Glass to See Smith, Another senator, Carter Glass, of Vir- ginia, hag been added to the list of Democratic leaders who will confer with Gov. Smith before the week-end. The Virginian is expected here tomorrow, and he will be followed by Josephus Daniels, Wednesday; Senator George, of Georgia, Thursday, and Senator Walsh, of Montana, Friday. Glass, until recently, was a member of the Democratic national committee. For a time during the Wilson adminis- tration he was Secretary of the Treas- ury and as a member of the House had a hand. in the enactment of the Federal Reserve act. He is an ardent dry and at the Houston convention as a mem- ber of the platform committee was in- fluential in working out the prohibi- tion plank. A. J.

In one of the most harmonious meetings of a vurbulent political year the comnuttee, under the leadership of National Committeeman R. B.

Because of the announked intention of State party leaders and leaders of the anti-Smith Democrats to work together for the defeat of the national Demo- cratic ticket, much interest attaches to the slate of electors the Republicans may choose.

Both parties are pledged to tariff re- Vision, and both candidates for President have signified their approval of the re- spective platforms touching the tariff. Mr. Hoover proposes, if elected, to do nis utmost to extend full tariff protection to all farm products. No doubt Gov. Smith wilk give the same pledge. The annual imports of products that enter into competition with the American farm amount to over $2,000,000,000 in value. None of these products is on the free list. When the Fordney-McCumber tariff was in the making the farm bloe in Congress wrote the schedules affecting the farmer, and Congress accepted them. Both parties catered to the Everything that he produced was made dutiable, and much that he consumed was placed on the free list. This had been done in great measure in the Underwood tariff, thus showing that the Democratic party, as well the Republican, is anxious to please the farmer when mak- ing tariffs. Now a revision is to be made, whether Gov. Smith or Mr. Hoover is elected. The repercussion of the change will be felt more seriously in Canada, perhaps, than in any other foreign country. Canadian hard wheat and Canadian cattle are heavily imported into this country, the former for mixing with soft wheat and the latter for fattening. Certain American interests profit by these Canadian imports, and of course the business is profitable to Canadians. The farmers of the United States are entitled to full protection against foreign competitors on all products of the Ameri- canfarm. The protective tariff is a fraud if it does not extend protection to all home industries and all home labor. Hon- est protectionists do not seek to favor oie aS industry at the expense of another. The“ prosperity of the country 1s. enhanced when all industries are protected; and it is obvious that the farmers could be more penerous consumers of manufactured products if they were more fully pro- tected against the influx of farm products. The theory that the protective tariff increases the cost of living has been de- stroyed by facts. Americans can buy home manufactured goods more cheapiy than foreigners can buy similar gocds made abroad. Competition and mass production have hammered down costs here. So long as Americans have: free trade among themselves, and protection against outside cheap-labor competition, they can sell goods cheaply and yet pay high wages. The same condition can be created in the agricultural industry by improving the distributing facilities of agriculture and by giving full tariff pro- tection to farm products. If the farmers could work out a marketing system one- half as good as that evolved by manu- ' facturers, the stupendous extravagance | of distributing foodstuffs would be _ stopped, and farmers would receive bet- ter prices while consumers would pay less. Absolute free trade among Americans, - protection against all outside competition '~ —that is the secret of prosperity, full em- * ployment and high wages. The most en- » couraging development of recent years - is the fact that the Democratic party has ~ come over to the support of the protective principle. aa THE CATHEDRAL CONVENTION. | It is the belief of the National Council of the Episcopal Church that there is as much " of the zest of “inguiry, adventure and experi- ence” to be found in the teachings of religion “today as has ever been the case. Announce- ment is made of a school of applied religion, “which is to be featured during the forty-niuth triennial general convention of that church. > 4 a, the convention itself will have its sessions in the Washington Cathedral. The announcement sets forth the confidence of the Episcopal tead- ers.that there is very much more to religion Bin Sy than controversies over shades of opinion between radical and liberal, or of dis- a : : “ ~ sie ot’ ‘ >» % ae —s) - i i ~~ a! .. =» - P : eS a, Be é Soy Be | Mae 9 a ee “ jf AP os + PEL Ss f e+ Fe “Tees 7’ “a n t ee " ee bei x » » be » i ; ' amounted . ‘ ena ie i —e bial th ee ee Parry ; ha Te MG “as, 5 2 +e v Perey Ve Sab.

The school] of applied religion, which will bring together thousands of young persuns in a concerted study, is designed to give co- herence to the thought of the younger element of the church, without aiming to impose any particular class opinions or to narrow or cir- cumscribe individuality of view. As the convention will be the first general gathering to assemble in the beautiful catne- dral, the occasion will doubtless do much to- ward stimulating the generosity of churchmen toward its completion as an outstanding addi- tion to the noble ecclesiastical structures of America’ INDUSTRIAL RAMIFICATIONS. Some idea of the gigantic scale upon which railroads operate today may be gathered from the remarks of the president of the Illinois Central. to this railroads of the United Siates spent $1,396,- According authority, the 000,000 last year for material and supplies and $720,000,000 for equipment and improve- ments, making a total of $2,168,000,000. This sum is equivalent to $78.60 for every family in the United States, Coal alone cost the roads $39,000,000 1927, miner came from the railroads. The latter, again, ,were obliged to spend $485,000,000 last year for iron and steel products of various sorts. One-fifth of the income of the iron and steel] company employes was derived in this manner. Railroad purchases of lumber, ties, poles and ‘other forest products in 1927 to $176.000,000.

ANOTHER CANCER THEORY. Holding that whatever other factor may be involved, an increase of the calcium content of the blood would prove inimical to the dis- tribution of cancer cells through the circu- latory system, Dr, Ellice McDonald, director of cancer research of the University of Pennsyl- vania, has told the American Chemical Society that a person may be treated for deficiencies in his blood, from which cancer may arise, A new note is sounded in the assertion that eancer is a disease that attacks the body cells, “checking every cell activity except that of reproduction.” The hydrogen and hydroxy] irons, necessary for the life upset in respect to balance, according to this thedrist, making a knowledge of the propor- tion of ubits of these two classes of chemica) content essential to a serviceable diagnosis. If, as Dr. McDonald asserts, cancer is a dis- ease associated with the alkalinily of the bloed, there should be no great difficulty in intro- ducing into the blood channels the corrective. At any rate, his method of blood study opens up a new approach to the subject, and leads to the hope that here may be found the funda- mental cause of the growth of cancer cells, If it should be found that instead of cancer cells being distributed by the blood stream, its incipiency is in the blood itself, or througa the effect of the vitiated blood upon classes of susceptible tissue, the entire attitude toward the problem would be altered. Incidentally, physicians would be led to consider with es- pecia] care their prescriptions for the lowering of the acid content of the blood as a relief for common affections. Dr. McDonald holds that a certain degree of acidity of the blood is necessary to combat alkalinity. However, here is as yet but a searching for a theory which lacks the body of support necessary to accupt- ance. EDUCATING ORIENTAL WOMEN. Three. or four decades have passed since women of the Orient first made their appear- ance in the schools of this country. Their appearance, indeed, was almost at the dawn of the general development of woman’s colleges.

Bitter experience has made most Americans a little skeptical toward brilliant schemes for killing off one kind of pest by setting another pest upon it. The lat- est proposal of the sort is that cannibal mos- in their attitude quitoes shall be imported from New Guinea and turned loose in New Jersey and other fa- vored spots, there to devour the domestic mvus- But Dr. Department of Agriculture, sounds a note of warning, by stating that the cannibal musquity is quite above preying upon its own relatives, even distant cousins—a forbearance that ought to be imitated by human beings. It would be just America’s luck to import a lot of ferocious cannibal mosquitoes, only to see them organize a merger with the domestic pest and set up a reign of terror. The cross breed would be a horrific animal, combining the furtiveness of the domestic with the feroc- ity of the alien strain. The benevolent as- similation consequent upon admission of the aliens would thus be entirely at the expense of genus homo, who would thereby lose the right to be classed as homo sapiens. The United States has had enough ot hyphenates. If New Guinea cannibals are to be admitted, let them be of the human and not the mosquito family. A few human capn- nibals, properly directed, could do excellent work in disposing of assassins who prove that they are insane only while murdering. The cannibals would display an intelligence su- perior to that of the average jury. They would not reject a plump candidate for the pot merely because he and his jury were insane. quito.

Second, let us have a traffic Baumes law. That is, if a driver is convicted for a third violation of the regulations take his permit away from him and let it be a part of the penalty that he can not again get a permit. It would be still better if drastic steps be taken on the second offense. When con- Victed the second time, padlock his auto for 60 or 90 days, If his permit is taken away he might let some one else drive his maghine for him, but if he is denied the use of his machine for 60 or 90 days, he will'in the future avoid all accidents by exercising care. The primary cause of most of these accidents lies in the freedom with which operating permits are obtained, and that can be largely remedied by exercising more care and judgment in permit granting. Let a reform begin there, and then make the punishment for violation of the traffic regulations severe enough to make all drivers ex- ercise caution. J. C. ADAMS. lies with those be Hoover's Speech, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: It is evident from his acceptance speech that Mr. Hoover does not believe the voters of the country are of “the sin- gle-track mind” class. There may be found a few here»and there who will regard some one issue as the only tssue that will confront the Government, as the ultra prohibitionists who have for three decades flocked off by them- and a few farmers who hold farm relief. as the one and only ques- tion. But the great mass of the voters look at the whole field. Wet Republi- cans will not be apt to turn to Gov Smith, ‘for they can not and will not indorse his tariff views, and his Tammany connections.

(Copyright, 1928.) will find some way to enforce the amendment without such obnoxious features. The experience of the last five years has demonstrated that moonshining and bootlegging are far worse for the country than was the open manufacture and sale of malt and spirituous liquors before the amend- ment was adopted. A remedy can be found; a way discovered by which the true spirit of the amendment can be carried out, and Mr. Hoover is willing to wait for that. He will enforce the law as it stands until that law Is re- pealed or modified AMERICUS. ee Attitude of the Colored Voter. To the Editor of the Post—Sir: “How are you going to vote?” is the normal query among friends in these days of political uncertainty. “I am going to vote for Al Smith because the South wants Hoover,” responded a highly in- telligent friend of mine. Many colored voters will be actuated by like vindic- tive motive, Some will vote for Hoover becadse the Democrats are unfriendly to their political demands; others will vote for Smith because the Republicans are indifferent to them. The negro voter stands distraught midway be- tween former political friends and erst- While foes, impelled by conflicting feel- ings of fear and revenge. He must either vote for the Democrats and teach the apostate Republicans a les- son, or continue to vote with the Re- publicans in order to escape further humiliation at the hands of the Demo- crats. If he throws his support to Hoover he will thus put the stamp of approval upon prevalent lily white proclivites and justify the shabby treatment by the last two administra- tions. On the other hand, if he sup- ports Smith, a certain tragic eventu- ality might bring an Arkansas Demo- crat to the White House. Whichever way he turns, he is frightened by a scarecrow at one end of the row and to the present a time the negro has had spontaneous and genuine interest and enthuslasm in but one feature of politics, which has to do with human rights. But let him write the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments at the head of the plat- form and he cares little of what might be written underneath. But unfortu- nately the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments have been eliminated from the agenda of both parties. However, there is left the issue of prohibition, which is cutting across all former political alignments. As many wets will support Hoover as drys will support Smith. However the white voter may regard the eighteenth amendment, to the negro it is the transcendent moral issue. Whatever inconsistency or insincerity the white Republicans and Democrats may show by professing reverence for some parts of the Constitution while maintaining guilty silence on other parts, the negro must hold all of this charter of liberty sacred and inviolate if he hopes to be the especial beneficiary of any part of it. Verbal reverence for the eighteenth amendment on part of partially right- eous defenders of the Constitution will not compound for the sin of silence upon two preceding amendments of vital importance to the integrity of the document. By lining up on the side of law and order, of temperance and righteousness, the negro frees himself from the motive of vindictive politics and takes on the stimulating advantage of the moral aggressive. : KELLY MILLER.

WASHINGTON’S FINEST MEN‘*S WEAR JUST ARRIVED A second group of Imported “Mclnderry”’ LINEN SUITS This morning they go into the Ex- pansion Sale at STORE $1] 3.45 ‘THE WASHINGTON POST: TUESDAY, AUGUST 14. 1928. NEAVY MELODRAMA UN NATIONAL STAGE ‘Nightstick,’ Expose of Police Methods, Contains Elements of Tense Drama. et ee ee ee LOCAL BOY MAKES GOOD Shaking the theatrical grab bag for material, the National Theater Players have, this week, drawn the slip marked “meiodrama.” They present the play “Nightstick,” which, by the way, first saw the light hereabouts early last season as a road show. “Nightstick” lays its claim to fame, aside from the story excellence, in that it was penned by the joint efforts of John Wray, the Nugents and Elaine Carrington. The statement may be made— it may seem a bit hackneyed—that this production just about reaches the high- water mark of the present season. Of course, there have been others which ‘gradually ascended the scale to its pres- “McInderry” —one_ of the most_ respected names that ever adorned the label of a linen suit— just sent us a_ second shipment of linens. Into the Expansion Sale they go. Oyster white, tans, plaids, stripes and fancy hopsack weaves. Very well tailored and very much in demand at this time. Don’t overlook this exceptional price.

Another accusation of abuse of the traffic lights heard on all sides against the hacker is his practice of “Jumping the amber light.” In this role, the taxi driver is so irritating to the private ve- hicle operator who resents the snarling demand of the taxicab horn that he, violates the law by starting before light shows. Why motorists lent, insolent their intent tions is a abuse merely because of to conform to the regula- mystery of nonenforcement that baffles a host of vehi- operators. Unlawful Turning Common.

ASKS FAIR ELECTION BE GIVEN NICARAGUA UY. §. Lacks Tactfulness, Speaker Tells Institute of Public Affairs. “ISSUES” FALSE, HE SAYS Charlottesville, Va., Aug. 13 (A.P.).— Need for sympathy and tactfulness, and & more clearly iefinec policy of the United States in dealing with Nica- ragua, was pointed out here today at | the University of Virginia Institute of Public Affairs by Roscoe Hill, former high commissioner of Nicaragua; Ar- thur Ruhl, special writer, and Dr. Sey- del Vaca, official representative of the Sacasa government, speaking before the open forum on “Our Latin-American Policy.” “Nicaragua presents a problem, not Only for ourselves, but for herself,” said Mr. Hill, who recently resigned his Office after eight years in Nicaragua. “We need a carefu) sympathetic atti- tude in approaching the problem from Our standpoint. The men who handle the problem should be experienced men who will always maintain a sympa- thetic viewpoint for the Nicaraguan.” The first step .n solving the complex | | | | | | problem, Mr. Ruhl! said, is to give Nic- aragua the “free and fair” election promised a year ago. Sees Need of Seriousness. “What is needed” he explained, “is a seriousness and a sense of respon- sibility, and the maintaining, some- how or other, in the State Department, of a continuity of intelligence. The trouble has been not sc much our pol- icy as our lack of policy and our tact- essness, Dr. Vaca, a citizen of the United States, who has represented Sacasa in Washington, was more outspoken in his criticism, saying that intervention in Nicaragua is always explained on “more or less false issues.” He declared that the Monroe Doctrine, the protec- tion of lives and property, and the pro- posed Nicaraguan ‘canal are not true issues. “The real motive for intervention in Nicaragua,” Dr. Vaca continued, “is the strategic situation of this country in Central America, and in view of the commercial expansion of the United States, the wish to hold the Panama Canal aS an exclusive national property. I can not see why the domination of the United States in Nicaragua would have to be made on the grounds of en- tirely economic utilitar!an policy, de- void entirely of moral values. Blanres State Department. “Everything that has happened in Nicaragua, good or bad, can be charged to the account of the State Depart- ment.” Dr. J. I. Cox, professor of history in Northwestern University, outlined the historical background of relations with Nicaragua, and added, “as long as we Pee Oe, eye ry Te aN “4 » ' ¢ ee cay ae J BS ee al F s rs : . ~ > = ee : f ; reed. me Ss PPS 7, a.

HOTEL GUEST FOUND STRANGLED TO DEATH ee Rocky Mount Police Believe He Was Knocked Uncon- scious by Blow. Rocky Mount, N. C., Aug. 13 (A.P.).— B. 7. Godsey, believed to be from Ap- pomattox, Va., was found dead in a local hotel last night, apparently hav- ing died from strangulation. Godsey registered here last night and was found dead two hours later in his room by a bell boy. He was ly- ing partially on the floor and partially on the bed, his head twisted under his body. He had been dead about an hour, according to physicians. A bruise on the right side of his head led to the belief that he had fal- len and been knocked unconscious by the blow.

Especially, it was shown, is this true at Silver Spring, where the }reconstruction of Georgia avenue willl be hindered at least a week, and at Ta- koma Park, where the work on Carroll avenuc may be postponed for the same length of time. Mayor Ben G. Davis, of the latter town, sald yesterday that but for the rain, the paving of Carroll ave- nue would be a completed job next Sat- urday. The principal other loss was that in connection with the closing of the an- nual carnival of the Bethesda Volun- teer Fire Depdrtment on Saturday night by the flood. Dudley Browne, of Leland, Bethesda, prominent in the management of the carnival, said yes- terday that the enforced closing of the carnival Saturday caused. a loss of at least $1,000 to the Bethesda Fire Department, as he expected an attend- ance of at least 4,000 persons. Frank Owen, who lives itn Wilson lane, near River road, in Bethesda, was placed in $500 bond yesterday by Justice of the Peace A. L. Moore. He was arrested by County Policemen As- bury Case, Joseph Oldfield and Roy Bodmer, who raNed his premises and found two gallg@ns of alleged corn whisky in his Marn. He will be tried today in the Police Court at Rockville. Kills Employer’s Son By Accident on Farm ete Clarksburg, W.

George Bancroft played as an unkempt, rough-and-ready sort, willing to “shoot it ovt” with any gangster, any place, at any time, and William Powell made the overlord of the gangmen an impeccably groomed, suave, polished and mentally alert gen- tleman, who held himself aloof from the sordid activities over which he pre- sided in a remote and perfectly nice way.

EARLY GAINS LOST IN LATE DOWNTURN Better Grade Stocks Retain Steady Tone—Biscuit Shares in Demand. CHRYSLER AT NEW HIGH Special to The Washington Post. New York, Aug. 13.—With trading restrained by the continuance of the high money rate and the turnover under 1,800,000 shares, a generally steady tone nevertheless prevailed among stocks of the better. grade in dealings on the New York Stock Ex- change today, and impressive cains were recorded in some of the favored industrials, but many gains were can- celed in a late downturn and others were materially reduced. At the fin- ish net gains and losses were about evenly divided, with the former ex- tending up to 6 or 7 points and re- cessions, although mainly moderate, in a few instances attaining like pro- portions. Unjted States Steel common again commanded considerable attention with a forenoon spurt to a new high for the movement—145—but it subsequently reacted 114 points on profit-taking and finished the day but % net higher. General Motors rallied briskly to 184%, in a fresh drive against the shorts, but it backed down to 18214 before the close, ending the _ session with a 114 point net loss. Radio be- haved similarly, getting up 234 points from Saturday’s closing level, but easing off later to quit but 114 points to the yood. Biscuit shares were in renewed de- mand early in response to lower prices for grains and reports of impending developments of a favorable characier, but all of them participated in the fairly general reaction in the late dealings and finished on the down side. Loose-Wiles, for example, wound up the session at a figure 314 points under the day’s best and with a net depreciation of 15, points. It was Chrysler and Steel. that led the rather strong forward movement in the early trading among a selected list ~f stocks, some score or more of which profited by efforts to broadcast a sentiment of confidence based upon interpretations of Secre- tary Hoover’s acceptance speech, which generally was viewed as a constructive factor of some importance. Chrysler boomed up nearly 4 points to a new 128 maximum price at 92% on intimations that strong interests were bent on lifting it to par, but eventually it receded 21 points to close 1%, points above the previous final quotation. The turnover here was 242,300 shares, or about one- seventh of the market’s total business on the day. The stock was readily ab- sorbed in the heavy selling developing when the upswing came to a halt, and here, as elsewhere, efforts to push the reaction further failed to produce any real weakness. When the attempts to | force a general recession met with | atrong resistance, the market as a whole fell into the lethargy which has ac- companied all recent attempts of the kind. however, | ; Am. Rail shares showed some late in the session, notably Pacific preferred and St. Louis-South- western, but the latter, after selling up to 9312, slumped 334 points to fin- ish 24%4 net lower. Western Maryland 2nd preferred improved 3 points on a few transactions and Wabash gained 2, but Texas & Pacific yielded 4 points and Southern Railway 2%. Elsewhere the group generally moved within narrow limits. Warner Brothers A, on a large volume ef business, rose to a new high at 84 and held a 7-point net gain. Mean- while, on the curb market, Warner B shares rose 2% points. Other outstanding gainers on the big | board included Hanna first preferred, with a 10%4-point net advance; Coty, up 6; International Silver, 4144; Gulf States Steel, 334; Barker Brothers, 2%; Pittsburgh Coal, 254; Murray Corpora- tion, 2%; Gold Dust, 254; Brockway Motors preferred, 4, and a sizable list, including Pittsburgh Terminal Coal, American Smelting, Best & Co., Jewel Tea and Woolworth, 2 points or a trifle more. Reynolds Tobacco sold 9% points lower on a single transaction; Cluett Peabody lost 5%, American Snuff, 43; National Tea, 6; Repolgle Iron & Steel preferred, 214; Bayuk Cigars, 234; Du- Pont, 2; Montgomery Ward, 234, and Case Threshing, 3, after most of these had been substantially higher in the morning. Hopes of an easier tone in call money were dashed by the calling of loans by banks to the extent of some $20,- 000,000, but attempts to unsettle the atock market on the basis of tight money met with but. little encourage- ment. On the other hand, if the mar- ket needed any further reminder to impose caution and restrain attempts toward a broad forward movement, it was to be found in what Wall street, in its milder moments, calls the “heavy hands of the Federal Reserve Bank” upon the money market, felt in the further withdrawals, and in an advance of 4% of 1 per cent in the rates for cal] loans on bankers’ acceptances. Despite extremely quiet trading in the foreign exchange market, several important changes in rates resulted. The increased tension in Manchuria was followed by a further drop of 4 ints in Japanese yen to 45.06, a new ow for the year, and bids were ma- terially below that price in the after- noon. activity FOREIGN EXCHANGE.

York, Aug. 13 (A.P.).—An early ' 45 to 52 points in the cotton ket y was followed by partial eries, but business seemed to taper the rallies, which were not fully maintained. December contracts, after selling off to 18.11, tallied to 18.40 and closed at 18.25. The general market closed very steady at net declines of 27 to 40 points. niarket opened easy at a decline of points. The storm news from parts Eastern belt over Sunday appeared to little effect on the market. which was evidently influenced by relatively easy Liv- erpooi cables and reports of fairly good weather elsewhere in the belt. Offerings in- creased right after the opening, coming from all directions, Liverpool, Wall street, West- crn interests and the South being credited with selling heavily in early trading. Prices broke sharply under this pressure, October easing off to 18.15 and January to 18.05, nmiaking net declines of about '% cent and a decline of a little over 4! cents a pound, compared with the high levels on the buying movement late last June, when December sold a 2.70. Demand tte at these figures with some trade buying, covering or re-buying by recent scllers, and the midday market steadicd up. Business fell off as prices steadied. but more covering seemed to come in on the dips and was probably promoted to some extent by reports of increasing bol] weevil infestation in Texas. At the best, the marke! showed recoveries of about 20 to 29 point. from the lowest, but after selling up to 18.39 for October and 18.25 for Jan- uary, prices eased off a few points in late trading under renewed liquidation. A little hedge selling was reported from the Southwest during the day. but. after the first hour, offerings were less axggressive and less general than they were on the de- clines of last wee The Getatied weather reports showed rains along the Atlantic Coast, and there may have been a little nervousness over tropical storm reports, but weather over the greater part of the belt was Conia cered favorable.

Y A chance that another player, pos- sibly Tilden, will be added to the team was indicated, however, by the wording of the announcement which said “the Eastern team will include” Richard N. Williams, of Philadelphia, captain; Francis T. Hunter, New Rochelle, N. Y.: Dr. George King, New York; Wat- son Washburn, New York; John Van Ryn, Princeton, N. J.; Gregory Mangin, Newark, N.

The announcement said the Western team will be composed of George Lott, Chicago; John Hennessey, Indianapolis; John Doeg, Santa Monica, Calif.; Alan Herrington, Neil Brown and Robert Sel- lers, all of San Francisco. The schedule of matches and pairings are yet to be arranged, but it was announced as probable that the two-day series will con- sist of five singles and three doubles matches. 13 (A.P.).—The T.

Tilden Plays at Rye Today; Mrs. Mallory Defaults Rye, N. Y., Aug. 13 (A.P.).—George M. Lott, jr.. Chicago member of the American Davis Cup Team, and Johnny Doeg, of Santa Monica, Calif., seeded third and fourth in the field, disposed of two opponents apiece in the Eastern turf tennis championships today and joined Frank Hunter, Berkeley Bell and Herbert L.

J., in his second round match tomorrow. Tilden advanced by the default of his first round sie nent. Lott defeated Harry Brunie, of New Rochelle, N, Y., 2—6, 6—3, and Ted Burwell, of Charlotte, N.

EW YORK, Aug. 13.—Harry Wills, late colored heavyweight menace, has applied for a license to sec- ond Roberto Roberti when Italy’s gilt to the current heavyweight elimina- tion tournament endeavors to put the slug on Johnny Risko in a 10-round bout Wednesday night at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn. If Harry’s application is granted to- morrow it will not be the first time he has been a second at Ebbets Field. He was that the night he fought Jack Sharkey and again when he met Paolino Uzcudun. But this will be the first time he has been second voluntarily. He has trained “double Robert” for the fray, and is so confi- dent his pupil can beat the leather- skinned Cleveland baker that he is going to assume full responsibility. That many of the betters are be- ginning to realize that perhaps the beating Risko took off George Godfrey has softened him up is indicated by the big drop the odds have taken. Two days ago the talent was laying 7 to 1 on the baker boy. Today the best price you could get was 4 to 1. Jack Sharkey, who is being looked upon as Gene Tunney’s most likely suc- cessor for no reason at all, will be at the ringside. The Lithuanian may have to meet the winner later on and is anxious to get first hand informa- tion on what he will have to contend with. Shocker Serinusly iil In Hospital in Denver Colo., Aug. 13 (A.P.).—Urban Shocker, former New York Yankee pitcher, was removed to St. Luke's Hospital here today suffering with an attack of pneumonia. His condition was described as serious. Shocker has been pitching for a Den- ver semipro nine in the Denver Post baseball tournament here. British Walker Cup Team Arrives at N. Y. New York, Aug. 13 (A.P.).—The Brit- ish Walker Cup eam o/ nine members arrived here today on the liner Baltic to join a member already in New York and prepare to proceed to Chicago to practice for the history team matches with the cream of America’s amateurs. The team, scheduJed to go into ac- tion August 30 and 31 against the Americans, is made p of Dr. William Tweddell, captain; Thomas P, Perkins, British amateur champion; R. H. Hard- man, John B. Beck, Maj. C O. Hezlet, W. L. Hope, Dr. A. L McCullum, Capt. N. C. Martin and Fhomas A. Torrance. E. F. Storey, witii Hezlet the only ‘member of the 1926 team included in the present line-up, already is in Amer- ica. Henry Gullen is secretary-mana- ger of the trip. Altbough confident of winning the cup wow in the possession of America through victory in England in 1926, the invaders refused to discuss their prospects. The United States team won the last match played at St. Andrews in Scot- land in June, 1926, by a score of 6% to 5%. The British have yet to win a victory in the five matches, four for- mal and one informa:, thar have made up the series since the cup was donated by George H. Walker in 1921.

EOPLE in big cities whose lives p are more or less leisurely and s80- cial do not celebrate their wed- dings in the evening.

Of course, if they marry at home in- atead of in church, the women have more latitude in costume. What sort of meal they have depends upon the reception. If it is so small a wedding that they can al] sit down to dinner before or after the ceremony. that is one kind. If they have dancing after the marriage and a supper later. that is another. In all accounts of weddings centuries ago they did have dancing and supperg The English canonical hours, between 12 and-3, have rather lately been adopted by us. ; (Copyright. 1928.)

The two hands given below appa- tly are smiilar, but really are essen- tially diferent. In both the contract is| one No Trump; South is Declarer: and West's lead is the Six of Diamonds, e reade> is urged to examine them with care and see ‘f he can detect the -M management that they difference should receive in play. THK DIFFERENCK €) MANAGEMENT OF THE TWO HANDS The important point to notice is that, in the suit led, Dummy’s holding is the same in both casis, and Closed Hand's nearly is. But the slight dif- ference makes al) the difference in the world in the first play. In No. 1, Declarer’s only chance win a trick in the suit led is by play-| ing the King from Dummy on the first trick. In No. 2, Dec’arer is sure of ® trick in the suit led by playing small from Dummy: but might not make a trick if 'e played the King. In No. 1 if. Dummy’s King win, the ad- versaries probably will save game by running Diamonds, as soon as Declarer loses a trick. Declarer’s effort, there- fore, should be to take the next eight tricks. To trick 2, he should lead the Jack of Clubs and. if the Club finesse suc- ceed, should cash four Club tricks and the Ace of Spades. His next lead should be c small Heart from Clc3ed Hand, winning with the Ace in Dum- my; this ‘vould make a total of seven tricks. With his contract sefe. De- clarer easily can afford w lead a Spade from Dummy for tke Spade finesse which if, it succeed, will give him game. : In No. 2, after taking his solitary Diamond trick, Declarer, as in No. 1, should try the Club finesse; but if it succeed and five Clvb tric’ are won (one more Club in Dummy ft:ian in No. 2). the Spade finesse should not be risked because game would be made without it. : (Copyright. 1928.)

By G. D. SEYMOUR (Associated Press Staff Writer). New York (A.P.).—The shame of an automobilist out of gas in a traffic jam is trivial beside the tribulation of a motorman whose Madison avenue street car caught fire at the Forty- fourth street intersection. The fire was quickly quenched, but the car was dead when the confusion was over, and « trolley in the rear got rid of its passengers and started to push the crippled street car to the barns, blocks away. A cavalcade of mounted police was formed to clear the way, and the hap- less motorman waggled start and stop signals to his colleague manipulating the rear car, As the procession moved up the ave- nue, amid the crowd that always flocks to a mishap, some wags high in an office building showered Jown a few ribbons of ticker tape and fragments of paper, just to make it a real cele- bration.

The Department of Justice was urged yesterday by the Radio Protective As- ‘sociation to use as a basis for prosecu- tion the recent declaration gf the Radio Corporation of America and associated companies that modern radto com- munication would be destroyed if they were ordered to cancel certain cross licenses on various patents. The Radio Corporation and sev- eral other concerns sharing rights to numerous important patents made the declaration in their reply to a Federal Trade Commission complaint that their action constituted a monopoly.

LO MURDER TRIAL Oc] FOR otP TEMBER Counsel for Robertson Still Undecided as to Change of Venue Plan. SPECIAL JURY IS CALLED Samuel T. Robertson, Bethesda con- tractor, who was arraigned before Judge Robert C. Peter, of the Montgomery County Circuit Court yesterday, follow- ing his indictment last week on a charge of murder in connection with the death of Edward L. Mills, July 7, 1927, and was recommitted to the Rock- ville Jail, where he has been confined since early in May, will be tried by a special session of the Montgomery County petit jury to be called between September 15 and October 10, it was learned yesterday from county officials. Answering public comment that he would ask for a change of venue for his client, Stedman Prescott, of Rock- ville, counsel for Robertson, said yes- terday that while it has been consid- ered he has not yet determined what will be done. The law states ‘n substance that a change of venue must be automatically granted upon the effidavit of the de- fendant that he can not obtain a fair trial in Montgomery County and that as a matter of sigh he can obtain a change of venue when the offense is punishable by death without discre-+ tion of the court uron presentation of the petition to that purpose up to the time the jury is formed; after that he will be answerable to the action of the court. Questioned about this phase of the law, Prescott said that his client has as yet taken no action. It is believed that Judge Peter will so estimate the time of the Robertson trial and others indicted at the recent special session of ths grand jury that he will be able to complete them be- fore the regular November term of court. He announced at the arraign- ment of Robertson yesterday that the latter will be tried by a jury at a later date.

Curb Sleeper Is Jailed After Dispute in Court Although he was given a suspended 30-day sentence, Michael Jordan, of 424 Sixteenth street southeast, was sent to jail yesterday after his ‘ailure to understand the meaning of the word “suspended.” He tried the patience of Judge Isaac R. Hitt, who finally pro- nounced a sentence of $15, or fifteen days. Jordan was found asleep on the side. walk at Fifteenth and D streets south- east, Park Policeman H. A. Bickford told the court. Pleading for another chance, Jordan could not grasp the meaning of the phrase “execution sus- pended,” in spite of the efforts of court attaches to explain. The court finally became impatient and imposed a new sentence. GALLOWAY AooAlLc NUOVER ON CLERKS Federal Workers Receive but} ’ Slight Mention by Candi- date, He Declares. CALLS IT SKIMPY RATION Herbert Hoover, in his speech ac- cepting the Republican nomination for President, handed out “an exceedingly skimpy ration to Government clerks,”’ Charles M. Galloway, former United States Civil Service Commissioner, de- clared yesterday. Galloway, who now tis counsel for the League of the American Civil Serv- ice, composed of Federal workers, pointed out that Hoover had dismissed the workers with nine words, “If the great civilian army of the United States Government, numbering nearly three-quarters of a militon voters,” said Galloway, “had reason to hope for some word of encouragement or promise of tolerable working con- ditions from Mr. Hoover, that hope has been greatly dimmed, All he says is: “*Our civil service has proved to be a great national boon.’ “What the civil service workers hoped for—and had a right to expect— was some assurance of betterment on the side of humanity, rather than on the side of that tyrannical thing called bureaucracy. “Of course, Mr. Hoover is profuse in his promise to all manner of inter- ests, but he has nothing really to say for that large body of men and women who labor conscientiously in the sery- ice of the Government.” Baggage Robber Loots Sightseers’ Automobiles Police are searching for a baggage thief whose activities during the past few days have cost & number of persons clothing and valuables worth hundreds of dollars.

The United States Cu-*oms Service, which, among other important duties, has that of protector of public morals, yesterday barred from entry into the United States 43 books listed as “mer- chandise.” The books, officials said, were held to be “filled with obscenity of the rottenest and vilest character.” The decision of the Customs Service was backed up by the Customs Court. Many of the titles of the books are too “filthy” for publication, according to officials. Some of the milder titles, } however, were: “The Enthnology of the Sixth Sense,” The Basis of Passional Psychology,” “Crossways of Sex,“ “The pire est Voluptuousness,“ and “Aphro- An importer, in his appeal to Ellis Island officials, declared the books to be of undoubted merit and literary value. “If it could be argued that the books abounding in obscenity, filth and rottenness are books of undoubted then all these are ree officials re- torted possi- in session, the WwW 14, | j ! | 1928. Pacific Hop Navigator Visits Ill Father Here Capt. Lyon, of Southern Cross, Plans Atlantic East-West Flight. Capt. Harry W. Lyon, navigator on the historic flight of the monoplane Southern Cross from California to Aus- tralia last June, arrived here yesterday afternoon to see his father, Rear Ad- nNral Henry W. Lyon, U. S. N., retired. who is ill in a local hospital. He was accompanied on his train journey across the continent from San Francisco by Capt. Newton Lancaster, of England, and Mrs. Keith Miller, of Australia, who early this year made a successful flight from England to Tas- mania, a 17,000-mile air journey The party is stopping at the Grace Dodge Hotel, and will be here until tomorrow evening, when they leave for New York. While here they will confer with Government officials regarding their proposed filght next spring from Croydon, England, to New York. On this proposed flight, Capt. Lyon stated, he will be the navigator, and Capt Lan- caster and Mrs. Miller copilots Will Get Byrd’s Advice. After stopping in New York to con- fer with Commander Richard E. Byrd regarding the flight, the party will goon to Paris Hill, Me., where Capt. Lyon’s mother and fellow-townsmen are wait- ing to greet him. Mrs Miller, after being introduced to newspaper men at the hotel, re- marked “you can not get any decent cigarettes or soap in this bloody coun- try,” and then Capt. Lyon announced tentative plans for their proposed flight. He said a prominent man was Dback- ing the east-to-west flight and a three- motored monoplane, with the latest equipment, is now being constructed for them in Los Angeles. After the welcoming ceremonies in Maine are over, they will return to California to supervise the building of their plane The ship, it is expected, will be de- livered to them by the first of the year It will have a gasoline capacity of 2,000 gallons. After test flights, the monoplane will be flown in easy stages from Los An- ? CAPT. HARRY W. LYON. —— geles to Trepassy, Newfoundland, and a hop will probably be made from there to England, rather than dismantle the ship and send it over by steamer. Capt. Lyon said they wanted to be at Croy- don not later than May 15 next year. From then on the actual date of the take-off would depend on the weather reports. In the near future the three will go on a lecture tour, and the profits de- rived from this will be devoted to the expenses for the east-to-west fiight. After the successful flight of the Southern Cross, Capt. Lyon met Capt. Lancaster and Mrs. Miller in Sydney, and he persuaded them to accompany him to the United States, and en route to this country they bégan making plans for the hop across the Atlantic. He praised Capt. Charles. Kingford- Smith, chief pilot on the Australian flight, as an all-around good flier, es- pecially in “blind” fly.
